IQ Capital Review

Our verdict on IQ Capital

IQ Capital is a Saint Lucia futures prop, operated by BEYOND IQ CAPITAL LTD, with a paying agent in Limassol. The futures book is one-step evaluations plus instant funding, not a live brokerage account. Accounts are $50,000 and $100,000. Platforms are Tradovate, Quantower, ATAS and Deepchart.

Core is the straightforward eval: 6% profit target, no consistency rule, end-of-day trailing drawdown, and a 1% max position loss instead of a daily loss limit. Core-DLL swaps that position cap for a hard daily loss limit and a tighter drawdown. Rapid keeps the 6% target, adds a 40% eval consistency rule, and drops the activation fee. Instant skips the eval. The site shows heavy coupons, so compare the struck list price.

The funded rules are the real product. Core pays 90% from the first dollar, but only after 10 active days, a 30% consistency rule, and a scalping filter that wants trades held longer than 15 seconds. You can withdraw at most half of the profits, and the caps are low: $1,500 then $2,500 on a 50K. After the first payout the drawdown locks at the starting balance. Rapid pays after one day, or after three days on the no-DLL variant, at 80/20, then the account closes after five payouts.

News trading is allowed. Hedging is not, and futures positions are flattened at 4:45pm ET, so this is not a swing book. The company number is from 2026. Treat the marketing payout certificates and the 48-hour guarantee as claims, not as a verified payout history. PropScore is 65/100. Health Score is 65/100, helped by the site's 4.7 Trustpilot widget and hurt by the firm's age.
